Tragic Incident Leaves Kfar Chabad in Shock

A 47-year-old woman and her 7-year-old son were found this morning, December 9, 2013, lying injured on the roof of a vehicle in Kfar Chabad, Israel. Police report that it appears the woman threw her son from their second floor window, and then jumped after him.

They were transported to Assaf HaRofeh Hospital for treatment.

The mother suffered light injuries to her extremities, while the son was listed in moderate condition with abdominal injuries.

Police say the investigation is underway, but officials posit that the mother hurled the son out of the window, and then jumped herself.

Medics at the scene said that the fact that they landed on a car’s roof may have saved their lives, or at the very least prevented serious injuries.

The woman was released from the hospital and placed under arrest, as authorities continue with the investigation.

  • Sad

    Where will the boy be staying while his mother is in prison?Does he have a father?Hashem should help!

  • Poor Woman

    A mother has to be seriously desperate to do such a thing. She needs help not arrest.

  • Pardon me

    Tell me, am I being insensitive? Certainly, something snapped in her, but to do this too her son! – okay, she did not, in lieu of a better expression, “chop him up,” like in the Leiby Keltsky HY”D case. However, had he died of his injuries, would anyone still have sympathies for this whatever you want to cakll her?

    Before u all judge the story is that her husband came home late after a farbrengen and she mistook him for an intruder being that there have been several home invasion in the kfar the most recent and extremely scary one a couple of months ago . Her house is near the edge of the kfar next to the orchards where arabs infIltrate from.

    She didn’t want to end up like the last woman and purposely tried. To fall on the cars.

  • Dear Great Minds Here:

    THINK when you read something. Just because the media blew a headline of someone throwing someone else out of a window, engage brain, engage brain:

    Many, many, many possobilities here: kid fell from window; mom jumpt after; etc etc, law enforcement must always look for evidence of abuse so its natrual for an anti-religous police to jump to conclusions. You can’t know what happened untill you find out from a reliable source. The headlines are writen for readers like you who don’t think for themselves but follow the wind wherever it blows.
